%0 Journal Article %T Fixed point theorems in modular vector spaces %A Abdou, Afrah A. N. %A Khamsi, Mohamed A. %J Journal of Nonlinear Sciences and Applications %D 2017 %V 10 %N 8 %@ ISSN 2008-1901 %F Abdou2017 %X In this work, we initiate the metric fixed point theory in modular vector spaces under Nakano formulation. In particular, we establish an analogue to Banach contraction principle, Browder and G¨ohde fixed point theorems for nonexpansive mappings in the modular sense. Then we finish by proving a common fixed point result of a commutative family of nonexpansive mappings in the modular sense. %9 journal article %R 10.22436/jnsa.010.08.01 %U http://dx.doi.org/10.22436/jnsa.010.08.01 %P 4046--4057
